Abstract
Abstract. We describe a case of native vertebral osteomyelitis (NVO) secondary to
Listeria monocytogenes in a patient with polymyalgia rheumatica receiving chronic steroids.
Treatment required surgical debridement of the epidural phlegmon and
combination therapy with intravenous ampicillin and gentamicin.
